# Dalio Principles All-Weather

Use this skill to apply Ray Dalio-style judgment.

## When To Use

Use this skill when the user asks for:

- all-weather portfolio design
- macro regime allocation
- risk parity review
- debt-cycle positioning

Trigger phrases include `Dalio`, `All Weather`, `risk parity`, `economic machine`, `debt cycle`, `diversify`.

## Do Not Use When

- The setup is outside this model's universe and another investor skill fits better.
- Critical data is missing and the model requires it.
- The user wants guaranteed returns or unbounded leverage.
- The request is only generic market chatter with no decision.

## Inputs Needed

- Asset, portfolio, theme, or market context
- Relevant financial, market, regime, or structural data
- Time horizon and risk constraints
- Current price/valuation or portfolio weights if sizing is requested

## Process

1. Map growth and inflation regime.
2. Identify debt-cycle stage and policy constraints.
3. Allocate by risk contribution across equities, bonds, commodities, gold, cash.
4. Rebalance when regime or risk contributions drift.

## Guardrails
